Another windows 8.1 usb 3.0 issue

Hi all,
my usb 3.0 port worked fine in windows 8,, then updated to 8.1 and 8.1 update 1.
Then I had to run a system restore (to a point in time 24 hours before), and then... boom:
No device is detected anymore on the usb 3.0 port of my laptop.
No usb key, no disk... the usb 3.0 disk light turns on and it's blue (3.0) but the device is ignored by windows: no error
in device manager, just nothing.
The only thing I noted, is that when I insert anything in that port, the system interrupts entry of the task manager spikes
to 17% and stays there forever, until I reboot.
I've tried everything I could find on the web for 2 days, I'm probably giving up and will disable the "Intel (R) USB
3.0 eXtensible Host Controller -0100 (Microsoft)” entry in device manager.
I can't believe it's a hardware issue... but it behaves as if it was. My UEFI is very simple and there are no settings for
usb, and the issue persists in safe mode too.
Any idea?
Thanks

Hi,
Please check Device Manager if there was any error message with USB 3.0 driver. If so, what's the error code of it.

  • Windows 8.1 USB 3.0 Issue

    Hello
    I have brought a Lenovo Ideapad S510p and installed Windows 8.1 Enterprize Edition.
    I have some issue on it, which I couldn't finf any solution.
    My USB 3.0 port keeps on disconnecting and reconnecting after few minutes. I cannot watch a movie continuously from an external HDD while connecting to USB 3 port. I have to use USB 2 for that.
    It's very distracting. I tried every possible solution like updating registry, changing in power setting for sleep modes, but none of them helped.
    So please help me.

  • Another Windows 8.1 Remote Desktop Connection Issue

    I want to connect to my PC running Windows 8.1 from my tablet running 8.1. I have allowed RDC in the windows firewall. I open RDC on my tablet and enter my PC computer name, KENSPC, into the Computer field and get "Remote Desktop can't connect to the
    remote computer for one of these reasons:
    1) Remote access to the server is not enabled
    2) The remote computer is turned off
    3) The remote computer is not available on the network.
    I get the same message when I use the IP address for the PC.
    My PC is wired to my router and my tablet is wireless and both use my Microsoft account for credentials. I can ping the PC from the tablet, so I know the tablet can see the PC and I can open files on the PC from the tablet. I have "Allow
    Remote Assistance connections to this computer" turned on. And I have, in fact, had HP help via remote assistance. But nothing I do seems to work. The steps as specified in the Helps do not work. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    According to your description,we need to know the detail edition of your remote PC.
    You can use a PC running any edition of Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7, or a PC running Windows 8, Windows RT, Windows 8.1, or Windows RT 8.1 to initiate a connection.
    But the remote PC must be running one of these Windows operating systems:
    Windows 8.1 Pro ,Windows 8.1 Enterprise ,Windows 8 Enterprise ,Windows 8 Pro ,Windows 7 Professional ,Windows 7 Enterprise ,Windows 7 Ultimate ,Windows Vista Business ,Windows Vista Ultimate ,Windows Vista Enterprise ,Windows XP Professional.
    Also, I would like to share the following article with you:

  • USB 3 Instability Issues - Windows 8.1 - Windows 8, The USB 3 Stack Is Unstable On Multiple PCs And Many Devices

    The USB 3 stack is unstable in Windows 8.1 and Windows 8. I was hoping the upgrade to Windows 8.1 would improve the stability but no.
    On two different motherboard systems I have had the same experience with 64 bit Windows 8 Pro and Windows 8.1 Pro compatibility with various USB 3.0 devices and hubs including:
    An AFT PRO-57U front panel card-reader/hub, various Anker, Syba multiport hubs, and these are just a few I have tried, there are many more.
    Symptoms are the same.
    For example: the AFT PRO-57U slots are enumerated correctly as drive letters in Windows 8.1.
    Then the drives (the PRO-57U slots) disappear, then reappear, then disappear, and reappear and so on. This happens consistently and the cycle time to disappear/reappear varies from 10 seconds to 10 minutes.
    The Windows Device Manager shows the devices appearing and disappearing as enumerated devices. I have tried many trial and error methods to solve this, uninstalling and reinstalling USB motherboard drivers, different cables to the AFT PRO-57U device different
    USB 3 ports for the devices and many more...
    One of the hubs I bought specifically because it has the latest chip and firmware: Anker® USB 3.0 9-Port Hub + 5V 2.1A Smart Charging Port with 12V 5A Power Adapter [VIA VL812-B2 Chipset and updated Firmware 9081] This hub FAILs to enumerate some external
    HDDs and other devices.
    To troubleshoot I have tried many things:
    I have disabled Windows Power Options, USB Selective Suspend.
    I have disabled power options for each and every USB device in Windows Device Manager
    I have uninstalled the Asus AI Suite 3 software and the issues remain.
    I have tried BIOS settings for Legacy USB devices on and off and the issues remain.
    I have tried BIOS setting for xHCI Mode - Auto, Smart Auto, On, Disabled
    I have updated to the latest Intel chipset drivers 9.4.0.1026
    I have all the latest BIOS, drivers, firmware, devices, - anything that is involved with the USB 3 stack.
    Etc. etc. etc...
    I have contacted Asus, Gigabyte Intel, AFT, Anker Syba, etc. and they are all finger pointing.
    I have tried so many trial and error methods to solve the problem and I have run out of ideas.
    It is clearly an unstable USB 3 stack and I am not sure who is responsible although I suspect Intel chipset drivers. 
    USB 2 is fine BTW. All devices work correctly when plugged into USB 2 ports.
    From what I can tell, the entire USB 3 environment is a problematic P.O.S.
    If anyone has any ideas I am willing to try anything I have not already tried.
    Thanks,
    Michael Downs
    P.S.  Here is my system information. I have all the latest BIOS, updates, drivers and etc. for all devices.
    ASUS Maximus VI Formula w/ BIOS 1002
    Intel Core i7-4770K  BX80646I74770K      
    G.Skill Trident X 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3 2400 Model F3-2400C10D-16GTX
    Samsung 840 Pro 256GB  SSD Seagate Constellation CS ST3000NC002 3TB 7200 RPM 64MB
    EVGA GeForce GTX 760 ACX 2GB 256-bit GDDR5  
    Corsair Carbide Series 330R Mid-tower Case

    Pioneer 15X BD-R SATA Blu-ray Burner BDR-2208
    AFT PRO-57U All-in-one USB 3.0 5.25" Media Card Reader
    Then there is a similar system with the exact same USB 3 issues:
    Gigabyte - GA-Z77X-UP4TH
    Intel i7 3770K
    etc.

    Hey, I hope this helps you out a bit... I have had the same issue on my Asus K55A notebook with Win8.1 Pro x64 from the beginning! Thru my extensive research I found something interesting and the possible cause to all this! What I found was that by design
    the xHCI Host Controller has virtual HS 2.0 Ports linked to the 3.0 Ports... Enabling compatibility with 2.0 devices ok... What happens is that the xHCI stack is unstable just like you say... The ONLY WAY I was able to fix the problem was by unlocking the
    UEFI/BIOS to allow me full access to USB Configurations... I had to disable 2 of the HS ports under the xHCI Controller since I have only 2x 3.0 ports... This allowed 3.0 devices to be enumerated correctly under the xHCI stack and 2.0 devices now were enumerated
    under the EHCI 2.0 stack... That's what worked in my case... I'm still digging around for more info about this issue because I find it so odd that no one discovered this when designing xHCI stacks and drivers at MS for Win8/8.1 x64... I hope I shed some light
    on this issue... Good luck and keep us posted!
    Hi, Sebastian. I have the same problem but i'm getting crazy trying to solve it. Can you help me to unlock the UEFI to access full USB config? and give me some suggestions on how to solve the problem?
    My mail is roquen(at)gamail(dot)com
    Thanks in advance!

  • Making a Windows 7 Installation USB Stick

    This is a discussion of making a bootable Windows 7 Installation USB-stick Media. It might apply to making other USB connected "Disks" like Smartcards bootable too.
    I recently had to do this (a Laptop with no build-in DVD drive and no USB DVD drive around). And it turned out to be surprisingly simple, using nothing but build in Windows tools from the Disk. I only found
    this german langauge guide and nothing in english (but I might just have searched after the wrong terms, google has been wierd regarding langauge lately), so I thought I write it up (along with some problems I ran into).
    Making a USB-Stick into a bootable Windows 7 (and propably Vista) Media is a 3 step process:
    1. Create a Active, Primary, FAT32 Partition of 4+ GB on the stick
    2. use bootsect.exe from Windows Disk to create the MBR and Partition Boot Record for that Partition
    3. Copy all files from the Disk to said Partition
    4. Test if it boots
    Detail analysis:
    Step 1 is so simple I doubt it needs explanations. Create enough free space on the USB disk (at worst delete all previous Partitions). Make a Priamry Partition of 4+ GiB. Mark it as Active. Format it in FAT32. The Guide used Diskpart,
    but this step can be done with any Partition Tool under any Windows, Linux, UNIX or DOS.
    While the choice of FAT32 seems a bit outdated, theye propably did not gave the relevant bootlaoder the ability to read NTFS. Or maybe they just though FAT32 is enough for a media that is mostly read. I have not tried what happens if I format it in NTFS, but
    it might be possible.
    Step 2 was the only tricky part. You need the programm "boot\bootsect.exe" from the Installation Media. It also must be run on a non-UEFI booted OS (otherwise it cancels out).
    I had a Windows 8 on a new Laptop so I had a UEFI booted system. Luckily I also had a VMWare Windows 7 lying around. I just assigned the Windows 7 ISO image to the Windows 7 VM, then connected the USB drive to the host.
    Once you have the USB stick in a a proper Windows mount the Parttion you created under 1 under any driveletter (should happen automatically under Windows), and open a console as Administrator (asumes DVD is drivletter is D: and the USB stick's partition
    ins Driveletter E:):
    //Go into the boot directory on the Install DVD
    D:
    cd boot
    //You should see a command promt like "D:\BOOT>"
    //Run bootsect.exe
    bootsect.exe /nt60 d:
    Step 3 is to either copy the contents of the DVD media (copy and paste) or the Image (Mount into Virtual DVD Drive and copy/paste, unpack ISO images contents) into the partition.
    How does this compare to other Distribution ways?
    To DVD:
    There is no need for a DVD drive. Even if a bootable USB-DVD drive is avalible, the Stick or Card will only need only USB port (most USB drives need 2 Ports due the 1 Ampere energy need of the drives).
    Flash Media has no seek times and much better throughput (the old weakpoint of any Disk and DVD/CD in particular)
    A FAT32 partition is inherently writeable. So modifications to the "Installation media" like Implementing Service Packs and other Windwos Updates, Modifying ei.cfg/preactivation/setup answer files, implementing special Disk/RAID drivers into the Windows
    PE or adding stuff that should be installed with Windows is easy (and do not requrie reburning a 4 GiB Image file).
    Since it only needs a 4 GiB partition, on a big USB stick there would still be place for other Data Partitions
    Since it relies on old techniques (Generic Bootloader + Active Primary Partition + partition boot loader), multiple Installation media on a big enough stick might be feasible (with a more advanced bootloader like GRUB). Have to test that part.
    However, the cost/media is a lot higher then a DVD. So if you need multiple Medias it will propably be cheaper to use the old DVD approach.
    Due to the needs of bootsec.exe, first creating the media can be more difficulty then just burning an image. But once it is bootable this programm is no longer needed.
    To PXE/network Distrubution:
    If you have the nessesary setup already (DHCP/PXE Server, powerfull network), the USB stick is likely inferior. The USB stick should beat a 100 MBIT Network easily, but will propably be beaten by a 1 GBIT Network. Network isntallation uses existing infrastructure
    (that you need for other reasons anyway) so the cost per media is even lower then the DVD.
    The PXE way also has even better modifyability - sending out different answer files or even automatically booting different images based on the Compuers MAC adress are tried techniques.
    If you lack the nessesary setup, the USB stick is a lot easier to implement and a lot easier to transport.
    Advanced things:
    Need to check if the partition could be formated as NTFS. I prefer a Journalling Filesystem for my USB-sticks.
    Need to check if using a advanced boot manager techniques (like Grub or modifciations to the BCD of the Windows PE) allows me to put multiple install media on one Stick (with one primary partition per "media"). Especially combining the x32/x86 and
    x64 Windows Installation Media would be worthwhile. As would be inlcuding a Window 8 or Vista installation media.
    Current Step 3 and 2 can propably be switched. I see no reason bootsect could not run from the USB stick as it runs from the DVD (it only accesses the MBR and
    VBR of the Disk, areas not in use by Windows)
    Steps 1 through 3 might be possible from the Windows PE environment. If so, only a computer with legacy BIOS boot would be nessesary (no actuall installation).
    Windows 7 can be installed on a (U)EFI system, but I have not checked if I can use the boot from teh stick on such a Computer. Latest for Windows 8 Media UEFI compatibilty is nessesary.

    I converted the stick to NTFS using the convert.exe and it continued booting. So chances are high they only choose FAT32 in the example because no feature of NTFS was per nessesary in a "almost only reading" scenario like installation media.
    The second part depends on the BIOS. I have a more advanced one where I can choose legacy boot options (like USB stick) in the boot option menu even when the default setting is UEFI, as long as I don't need Secure boot (wich I do not).
    Another question arose: Windows 7 has the Kernel/BCD level ability to boot from .VHD Files. The only thing preventing version below corporate from using this feature is a license check that is run just before the login (so way after the booting has been
    completed).
    Starting with 3.0 Windows PE is based on the kernel of Windows 7. So the instlaltion system might have the ability to boot from .VHD too and might have no such check in place. If so, I could put both versions of the Windows 7 installer into .VHD, reducing the
    need to have physical primary partitions for those.
    Windows bootprocess vs. Linux boot process under BIOS:
    The BIOS goes over all the boot media. If it finds one with a MBR, that one is executed and the BIOS part of the boot process is officially over.
     -> Under Windows the MBR contains the "generic boot loader". A simple piece of code as old as BIOS (25 Years) that looks for the primary partition with "Active" Flag on "it's" disk. If it finds one, the Partition Boot Record of that parition is executed.
    The MBR has done it's part
        -> NTLDR (NT too 2000), this one reads the boot.ini file and gives/executeds apropirate options
        -> BOOTMGR (Vista, 7), this one reads the BCD files
          -> Since Windows 7 BOOTMGR can also chainload the Partition Boot Record that is inside a .VHD File
        -> Wicher was used in Windows 3.X/95/98/ME
    Higher versions can chainload lower versions, but must be designed for this and (re)installed in the proper "order".
    The sometimes odd behavior that Windows 7 tries to keep 100 MiB in a seperate primary partition is there to have proper places for later additions to the BOOTMGR settings. Specifically it allows multiple BOOTMGR OS to use/edit the same BOOTMGR instace without
    running into problems with "whose partition is active?" (since it is always the System Reserved one). It's not disimilar to having an extra /boot partition in Linux or how a GRUB's stage 2 works.
    -> Under a typical Grub Legacy the MBR contains the Stage 1. It directly reads the Stage 2 from the proper partition/file system with a hardcoded path, but due to size limit of the MBR cannot do more. In some cases it starts a stage 1.5 wich has more
    space to do work (63 sectors between MBR and first partition), but I never used this Setup
        -> Stage 2 loads the Grub Configuration from the disk. From here it depends on what OS you want to boot.
            -> For Linux or Unix the kernel is started directly.
            -> Any Windows OS up to 7 can be booted using the chainloader command. For the OS this is identical to having the partition choosen by the Generic Bootloader.
    While it can be chainloaded by the Generic Bootloader from the active primary partition, GRUB and thus Linux has no
    requirement for any Primary Partitions. Stage 1 is designed to directly access the specific File System containng the Stage 2. In fact it does not even need to reside on the same disk (as the Generic Bootloader has to).
    If one does not need the Active Flag to control the Generic Bootloader (because a proper Stage 1 is installed in MBR) it is adviseable to mark wichever Windows Partition is chainloaded as active (up to Vista at least I had very odd behavior if the Windows boot
    partition was not marked active, down to randomly shredded Partition boot managers).
    After running a Windows Setup usually the Stage 1 has to be restored, as Windwos Setup will always write it's Generic Bootloader in the MBR. In order to get "rid" of a Grub all one has to do is overwrite the MBR with the Generic Bootloader and set the active
    flag properly.

  • Windows 7 x64 USB AUDIO DEVICE - Device Not Working - Mac Pro

    I have a mac pro early 2009. I had vista x64 installed, everything was great. I had 2 audio devices under device manager, one was listed as HD (digital) and one device was listed as analog audio.
    When I played games and wanted the external speakers (using the digital out connection) I had the HD (digital) audio device enabled.
    When I played games and wanted to use a headphone/microphone combo, I had the analog audio device enabled.
    Switching between the two was as easy as clicking the audio device icon and clicking on whichever device I wanted.
    Now that I installed windows 7 x64, I have a HD (optical out) device in device manager and it works perfectly. Unfortunately, I also have another device listed called "USB Audio Device" and it shows a yellow exclamation mark next to it and it is NOT working properly.
    I tried many suggestions on here, which included downloading the cirrus logic audio driver and picking different models, as well as trying the snow leopard install disk driver for cirrus logic, and even tried installing the realtek analog driver. The closest I got to getting anything to work was installing the realtek analog driver. It installed fine up to the point when windows said "this driver is not tested, do you wish to install it anyway?" and I click yes, but then it pauses for a few seconds and the same message comes up again and repeats in a endless loop until you say "no, do not install driver" and then it does a uninstall of the driver.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem and if so were you able to fix it?
    Thanks

  • Windows 8 Recovery USB causes UEFI error: "Grub error: Can't find gpt 7" [FIXED]

    Hello everyone,
    Here is my situation.  I had a dual boot setup on my toshiba S855D (Win 8/Ubuntu 12.10).  After a few months my win 8 install was giving me strange errors.  I decided to do a full reinstall using the recovery USB I made. (I had reinstalled once before)  When I plugged in my USB after restarting the computer (in USB as first boot), I got the error: 'Grub error. Can't find gpt 7' If I tuned off UEFI, the computer could at least detect the USB but not do a reinstall.  Thinking it was a Grub error I formatted the HD (using an ubuntu liveUSB).  The problem persisted. I installed boot-repair on ubuntu and tried that, but no effect.  I have tried to install an updated bios from the CD image in the bios zip, but it wouldn't execute the commands in the ini file.  I even tried to install an old xp disk I had to see if I could install the bios update that way, but the windows install  repeatedly froze.
    Quick version: dual boot (win8/ubuntu)->try to reinstall win8, "error: Grub Error: Can't find gpt 7", when usb is attempted to be booted from. ->Wiped hdd, but problem persisted. -> tried many ways to fix, but nothing works.
    I have been reading many forums for the past few days, and nothing looks to work.  Any and all help would be really helpful.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I finally got it!
    After much poking around the internet, I was finally able to identify my problem.  My bootx64.efi in the EFI/Boot folder wasn't working.  I found this out by putting UEFI shell on another usb and using that to test my *.uefi files.  Thankfully, I had a backup of my EFI folder from my initial Ubuntu install.  This had a backup made my ubuntu. (bkpbootx64.uefi) I ran the backup and the USB worked!  
    On another forum someone (Agent268) said this, which may help.  I'm guessing you need to have a windows pe DVD/USB to make this work though. 
    "You should be able to use DISM to manually reimage this bad boy using the WIM or SWMs on that USB recovery flash drive."
    Hope my research helps someone out there.  Cheers to everyone who looked.

  • Can anyone answer why in logic pro X I keep getting a window popping up that says Directory not found, result code= -120, followed by another window saying, Fade update failed, (error -120)?

    Can anyone answer, why in Logic Pro X I keep on getting a window popping up saying, Directory not found, result code = -120. Followed by another window saying, Fade update failed, (error -120)?
    I am running the latest version 10.0.5 through a Macbook Pro that has just been upgraded to 16GB Ram and a 960GB SSD which has made it as fast as ****. I upgraded because I was experiencing problems before and it was suggested that I didn't have enough Ram?
    I am using a Focusrite scarlett 2i4 and an Alesis Q61 midi controller. Weirdly, just trying to put a bass line down on a track using the Alesis, the bass sound goes out of tune with the track during recording only. This is very frustrating! I surely can't be the only one experiencing this?
    Many thanks

    Hi
    Time lost could be a problem, but.....
    Sadly, I don't think that there are any Apple docs relating to networked storgae issues with Logic. Other than a 'school' or 'business' setup, NAS/OD/AD setups are not usual circumstances for audio.
    If the issue is one of data backup & security, it may be enough to automatically backup the students local work folders to the NAS.
    If the issue is one of the Users being able to work from any Mac and pick up their files from the server, you are not likely to resolve this problem, without copying the files to the Local Mac.

    I am running XP SP2 fully patched. I recently upgraded to 3.6.3 and since then, clicking on an icon that normally would open another windows (for example, a printer-friendly version of the current web page), nothing happens. In these situations, I have been forced to go to IE or Crome in order to accomplish what I need to do. Very frustrating. Also clicking in the slider area has no effect. "Page Up" and "Page Down" keys work. Holding down left mouse button on slider works. Also very frustrating. Can someone help

  • Hello, I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to fix my itunes. When I was trying to download the new 1114 version, a window popped up saying R6034 C runtime library was incorrectly loaded. Then another window said iTunes not installed properly

    Hello,
    I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to fix my iTunes. When I tried to update to the latest version (1114) a window popped up saying R6034 C runtime library incorrectly installed. Then another window popped up saying that iTunes was installed incorrectly Error 7 (windows error 1114). Hope you can help.

    Solved the issue without using the trash . I tried to consolidate the library in LACIE, then clicked on any exclamation-mark song and tried to locate the file. Repeating those steps 3 or 4 times cleared it up. That was confirmed when I synced the entire library on a iPod Classic, and showed up no problems after syncing the Nano.
         What went wrong was perhaps to fail to consolidate the library at first .
